We will forever hold you in our hearts
An informal memorial service will be held at our home for James on Saturday 24 May. Guests can come anytime between 3-5pm. Some thoughts on James' life will be shared between 3.30-4pm. Our address is 19 Doon Grove, Papakowhai. We encourage guests to catch the train or park at the Paremata Train Station and a shuttle service will be made available from the bus stop to take guests to and from our home. There will be light afternoon tea and refreshments. We ask that guests think of a memory or story of James that they can bring with them pre-written or write in a book provided so that our children can reflect on these in the future.
